Summary

Cooper is a frequently used stabilizer substrate for metallic superconducting composites in magnets using low transition-temperature materials. Wetting effects, quantified by contact angle measurements, have been studied in water. The water data are used as a basis for scaling of nucleate boiling transport from high temperatures to the low boiling liquid helium I (4.2 K).
